He's not? Dude's leading the league in rushing. Get outta here with the negativity.
He doesn't look like he did in 2016. He can get yards but i'm not seeing the WOW plays.

Also, he's not that great in the passing game. I thought he could do it all but he's not close to some other RBs when it comes to catching passes.

He is a lot better RB than Dak is a QB. But Zeke needs to be held accountable by the coaching staff for his mistakes. To my eyes it seems the longer this offensive staff has a player the worse he gets. I just do not see player development on the offensive side of the ball.

The fumble was a great play by the Seattle DB from behind on a RB trying to make something happen on a beautiful run that started with escaping a tackle at the DL on a beautiful cutback..

Did you look at the statistics, he had 127 yards rushing doesn’t sound like. A bad game to me

He also had a catchable ball to pick up a 1st down and keep the offense on the field early in the game

He could of also had an easy walk in 28 yard td reception to get the team back into the game in the 2nd quarter and shift the momentum

Those plays should be expected of a 4th overall pick

With Zeke, even with his mistakes you see the talent on display, while with Dak, you see all his limitations with his mistakes.

He made some mistakes for sure but he’s the one All-Pro player this team has at a skill position.

So unless the FO has another Walker trade up their sleeve he’s the biggest threat they have.

I know man, I was just being a little sarcastic, as stats have been the flavor of the week this past week.

I personally think Zeke looks TERRIBLE. Hesitant and confused... He needs a better coach.

There’s no excuse for it. Zeke needs to play at an MVP level for the team to have a chance.

He is capable. But he really crapped the bed today.

He wasn't alone. There was enough people crapping to fill a Honey Wagon twice over.

Man at this point, Zeke is literally the last person on this team I worry about. The QB is so bad that I can't talk down on Zeke at all

I know Dak was bad today, but Zeke should take a lot of blame for today's loss against Seattle as well.

-Easy catch with room to run on a 3rd down in the 1st quarter that he flat out drops.
-Completely unaware of the sideline when he didn't have a defender 6 yards near him and steps out of bounds that negated a much needed TD.
-Trying to do too much after a 20 yard run in the 4th quarter and cut back in only to have a trailing defender strip the ball from him resulting in a critical turn over near Seattles end zone.
-Ran to the sidelines and catches a check down out of bounds.

Zeke is a high investment on this team and he had a terrible game today.

He needs to be held more accountable.
terrible no but the fumble was inexcusable, the stepping out of bounds well that could happen to anyone..hes still ran well if you see how bad this line blocked..hes still our best player on Offense and not utilized properly..its the Gurley was a bust syndrome similar to Goff/Gurley, odd how when the coaching straff changed they both got better..sad but Dak cant even find zeke over the middle twice , those were horrible thorws.. this starts with Scott Linehan needs to go and Dak needs to get better or get benched, the line needs to improve..we can discus Zeke WAY down the line..

Maybe terrible isnt the right word to describe Zeke's performance but he certainly left plays on the field that cost the team HUGE opportunities

Even with his mistakes, he was the only bright spot for us on offense today.

I think he's very talented but lacks concentration. The fumble after his 26 yard run was embarrassing for him.
That’s what happens when you’re offense is stagnate. Players press and try to do too much. Zeke should’ve touched the ball 30 times in a game like this in every way possible. Failure to do that gets him out of his game and prone to mental mistakes (breaks in concentrations).
